Hi Nerds!

We’re not slowing down and we’re back with more updates! Very soon we’ll be sharing something big, so stay tuned!

What’s up with Mervin?

  • We’ve rebuilt the entire intro you already know from the demo! It now uses all the latest systems!

    Open tutorial structure: from now on, the tutorial is optional, free-form, and only triggers when you perform a certain action for the first time – no more forcing!

    New Mervin model: we’ve taken care of details like fingers, hair, eyebrows, and shoes. He finally looks like a real human…

  • The fish in the aquarium also got a little facelift – new look, refined animations, a new feeding system, and a more engaging way to clean the tank.

  • Mervin finally found a classy club that hired him for a striptease minigame!

  • New features for true artists: color palette, canvas rotation, saving and selling paintings, and the ability to hang your masterpieces on your room’s walls!

  • Refreshed nightmare game: when Mervin has a restless dream, he’s attacked by real monsters… such as cleaning supplies or healthy food.

  • Gym treadmill minigame: we’ve expanded it with new point collection mechanics and a score-saving system, so now you can beat your own records!

See you soon!
